Saturday, 12 December @ 12pm

Parliament House, Canberra, can be a strange place at the best of times.

ENVIRONMENT VICTORIA AND AUSTRALIAN CONSERVATION FOUNDATION PRESENT

DARLING MURRAY

Once in a lifetime

Damaged by years of over-extraction, the time to save the Murray-Darling Basin, the nation’s food bowl, is now. Hear why scientists, politicians and local communities are worried that the current proposal will fail to restore the river system and find out how you can play a role in saving this irreplaceable Aussie icon.

Saving lives... reframing climate change around health and livelihoods

Environment Victoria, Doctor’s for the Environment Australia and Psychology for a Safe Climate invite you to join them for an evening forum to explore the communication of climate change as a health and human impacts issue.

A keynote presentation by Daniel Voronoff who works in the health and climate field and was previously an environmental campaigner for a Victorian NGO. This will be followed by a short panel discussion.

And we’re back

Legal action to Stop HRL resumes
